Holiday in the Lake District?
I'm not much of a holidayer at all except London city breaks but I think it's time to enjoy nature. I'm thinking early and I'm thinking Lake District in September hoping it will be good weather.

London hotel in September
Hi, I am going to a gig around 27th September in London and I've been amazed at the prices I'm being quoted on sites. Even by London prices they're steep.
